Cross-compilation toolchains in etch

Here is the grid that shows what cross toolchains can be built from etch toolchain sources.

The tools are as follows:

package

version

binutils

2.17-1

linux-kernel-headers

2.6.17.3-1

glibc

2.3.6-15

gcc-4.1

4.1.1-5

To get most of the compilers, I used native debian packages installed via dpkg-cross (libc6/libc6-dev and linux-kernel-headers). The short summary is that cross gcc successfully builds for 6 out of 10 architectures (officially supported in etch). Binutils scores 10 out of 10. The rest can be taken from native etch builds.
